Janelley - Sorry to hear about your cooker topand sorry to hear that little cutie saying that word - have you tried and you probably have every time he says that word change it to something else that sounds similar like Muck. So every time he says the F word you say to him why are you saying muck that's not a nice word eventually he may start saying Muck if he knows it pushes your buttons - worth a shot
I can't remember how old he was - I know when one of mine heard the B word for the first time I changed it to Blue Stocking and he walked around as if he was all grown up shouting Blue Stocking Blue Stocking
His Grace -still sending you BIG
Sweetz - Girl
Krissy - Aw hun how annoying not knowing - but at least now the doc is aware of it and hopefully you won't have to wait to long
Army mama - Waiting till Christmas - will you have had a scan by then? maybe put a copy of the scan in a photo frame and give out as gifts - I had a poem somewhere which I was going to use along side my scan pics when the time came.
I do not have a face to see,
Or put inside a frame.
I do not have soft cheeks to kiss,
I don't yet have a name.
You can't yet hold my tiny hands,
Nor whisper in my ear.
It's still too soon to sing a song,
Or cuddle me so near.
But all will change come ..................
That’s when they say I'm due.
I'm your new grandson or grandaughter;
I can't wait till I meet you.
All I ask between now and then
Is your patience while I grow.
I promise I'll be worth the wait,
Because of all the love we'll know.
So what I have to give you now,
Is a wish to you from me.
I cannot wait to be a part
Of this wonderful family
I found it on my travels through the net

Yes I will have had a scan by then. I will be able to make an appointment for my first OB visit on either Tuesday or Wednesday after I do the mandatory pee sample. Most likely i wont get a U/S til 7-8 weeks along because that is how the military works. And unfortunately, unless you are very high risk pregnancy they only do the 2 mandatory ultrasounds (7-8 weeks dating U/S, and 20 week growth/gender U/S). LOL but I have a plan. After 12 weeks I will no longer be on or near a military base, I will be back in IL with my favorite midwife of all, with any luck! And if I am measuring small (my torso is so long that I usually measure 2 weeks behind even though my babies measure a week ahead) then they usually give me an U/S every 4 weeks!
Oh, and as for how we are telling them, we did the whole picture frame thing for Christmas with my son. Since we are most likely not going to find out the gender of this baby, DH wants to do something very subtle. He wants to give them gifts that say From: the (our last name) Babies and see how long it takes our parents to catch on. Last time with our son it took the moms longer than the dads to put it all together (we had the picture frame plus boy themed items for each of them). Everyone outside of the family will just have to find out by Facebook.
